Drank on tap (10 oz) at Vices et Versa in Montreal on September 20, 2015. Light honey, medium head. Hoppy citrus rye aroma, light sweet grain note. The taste is the same but better, with some zestiness, strong bitterness. I’m with MartinT , it’s more APA than a saison, but who cares it’s good!

Draught @ Vices & Versa, Montréal. Pours hazy straw with airy white head. Clear aroma of hops, with notes of citrus and some estery and malty touches. Sweetish, malty and fruity flavour, supplemented by bitter, hoppy and citric notes. Bitterish and citric aftertaste. Very subtle salty touches, perhaps not sufficient to make this beer a Saison rather than an APA. Still, a good beer.

My Bottom Line:
This fluffy New World brew develops plenty of tropical fruit before yielding resinous bitterness and a few floral arrangements.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A dollop of foam bobs atop the misty straw blond.
-The fruitiness is also reminiscent of peaches and white grapes.
-The mouthfeel is dry and very drinkable for a 7% brew.
-An acidic whisper is felt in the finish.
-This is more of an APA than a Saison. But who cares about nomenclature when a brew is this good?
